My Goalkeeping System

What is worse than being the worst team in the world? For Dave Richards that was a very easy but heartbreaking question to answer, a goalkeeper who performed poorly between the sticks, he was still available as a first-choice goalkeeper because Unique FC didn't have any other goalkeeper. He was slow on his feet, couldn't jump properly and worst of all, he didn't know how to hold the ball properly. The only way that Unique FC was able to survive taking in a massive goal-fest sometimes was because of the extra effort they put in their defence. After a terrible match in which Dave wasn't able to make any saves and also made a lot of mistakes, he was seriously scolded by the managerial staff and almost received a beating from his angry teammates. He got home sad and also angry at all those who told him he looked like his grandfather and would therefore inherit his goalkeeping skills. He discovered a hidden door below his room and when he got down there the only thing he could see was a black box. He found the box to be quite familiar and when he opened it the last thing he saw was a bright white light when the light was gone he could see something in his field of vision. [ Welcome Dave ] [ You have activated the Goalkeeping system ] A female voice read out the messages. This is a story about how an ordinary man who didn't know his place between the sticks went from nothing to pro and beyond that.

Warning!

The goalkeeper got up as early as 5:00 PM so that he would be able to get through his daily routine without any interruptions and get back on time to help his wife with things around the house.

Getting up by 5:00 PM worked pretty well for him as he was able to complete seven kilometers, do some stretches, and spend some time in his gym before going back inside to help Emma who wasn't feeling so good that morning.

After helping her with getting breakfast ready and every other thing, he tried to stop her from going to work and just relax at home but she insisted, and there was nothing he could do about it.

She got ready for work and left looking healthier than he met her earlier in the morning so that was a bit of a relief.

"Now, I just have to get ready and leave for the stadium before 11:00 AM." He said before he made his way to the couch and crashed down on it.
